I can assure you though that if you try the settings I suggest you will get your promotions. You can test them too, create a user account as of now, after the account has been created change the relevant values on the account to meet the specs for promotion in admincp. Then either run the promotion scheduled task or check back in a couple of hours, if everything is working grand. If not then try different settings.

I meant "false" as in, the condition is false. Yeah, I have Greater than or Equal and Less than.

Well, I tried it,

Promotion: Registered Users (id: 4)

Usergroup: Registered Members
Rep: -10000
Days reg: 3
Posts: 0
Promo Strategy: Posts AND Rep AND Date
Promo Type: Primary
Rep Comparsion type: Greater than or Equal to
Mover to User group: Shy

Ran Task Scheduler, It moved ALL 19,425 user from Reg Users to Shy.
Ok, smelling salts still work. I ran Task Scheduler again, now Reg Users have about the normal number, 13,034 and SHY has the difference. So, I'll look around at the db and see if the records make sense.

Now, hopefully the next time the task scheduler runs, it does not move all the Reg Users back into Shy and on and on.

Like I said in the OP, this Promotional thing is very confusing, sure with vB had provided more examples.
